Why Greece is struggling so much with productivity?

451 viewsEconomicsOther

I know that Greece has had economic woes for some time, but I was surprised to learn that the average Greek worker puts in more hours per year than the average American and significantly more than the EU average. With the recent approval of six day workweeks in Greece, while conversations about shifting to four day workweeks are occurring elsewhere in the world, I’m curious as to what has led to this situation occurring?

It’s high cost of living with low wages, while being stuck in a bad spot with little to sell
